Time for Two
February 15th, 2010
Cherry Blossom had two twin boys today.
After much thinking, debating, and finally a drawing, the names Ulysses and Ninja are the winners. The minority are happy.
But the boys are adorable and friendly little tykes and their favorite thing to do is chew. Anything. Ulysses is the much more curious of the two, but Ninja lives up to his name. Where Ulysses will walk right up and say hello, Ninja prefers the more stealthy approach of sneaking up behind until you notice him.
Ninja, on the other hand is completely black...as he should be.

Ulysses has a white star on his forehead and a little puff of it under his chin.

Our First Kid of 2010
On January 26th, we received our first goat baby.
Ginger's Nutmeg
Isn't she just the cutest little thing? Everyone at Fuzzy Fiber Farm is amazed to see the striking resemblance Nutmeg has to her mom!This is baby Ginger.
This is baby Nutmeg.
See the difference? Because, if it weren't from their apparent sizes, we wouldn't!
Not only does Nutmeg look like her mom, she acts just like her too. She is the little Princess, she is in charge, and her mama spoils her like none other.
You're Kidding Me, Right?
(Note to reader: We've fallen behind in our blogging so if the posted times and the event times don't match up, its because we are recapping past events.)
We've started our kidding season! Our 2010 babies should be here shortly. We bred four does, and are expecting the babies to be here soon! Our beautiful mamas are:

Goats Take Over Clarkston
July 6, 2008
Goats Take over Clarkston
It is not as ominous as it sounds… we were there by invitation. Or should I say “registration” since we were there for the 4th of July parade. Mom said several times that she was so glad that we decided not to take them to the local 4H county fair next week. Which of course is the premier event for “local yokels” who are few and far between here in Oakland County. But that was just one of the things we realized as the day went on. See complete list below:
1. Do not bring goats 2 hours early to stay on leashes and stand in line on an asphalt parking lot while you decorate a float (or in our case multiple donkey carts even though they were very well behaved - honest, everyone said so).
2. Do not bring grain in a gallon ziplock bag that can be chewed open.
3. Goats have a strong dislike of marching bands particularly drum sections – even though the Clarkston High School band has declared Toby to be their unofficial mascot.
4. Bring a familiar water bucket from home as they will not drink from a new one.
5. We didn’t need to bring a pooper scooper as the city does this for us – is this too much information for our delicate blog readers?
6. Even several months later our housebreaking has still stuck as our goats would only “go potty” on the grass however we can’t say the same for the mini donkeys.
7. Toby was afraid of the flying candy where as Zoe thought that every piece on the ground was for her to eat which made for an uncomfortable dragging and carrying through town.
8. Windy looks adorable in patriotic dress.
9. Donkeys don’t like to walk down hills with carts as they were like tippy toeing!
10. Policemen do not make any exceptions for animals with teeny legs or otherwise holding up the parade.
When all was said and done the goats were fine and their mommas were cranky from worry. Of course we think it was the goats that won us first place for 4H in the parade - maybe the chickens and donkeys helped a little. And again, phew are we glad that we aren’t taking them to the fair this week – maybe next year.
